Abstract

Interleukin 10 (IL-10) is an immunosuppressive cytokine and its genetic variants could have an indirect impact on viral biology and human papillomavirus (HPV) E6/E7 messenger RNA (mRNA) expression as well. This study evaluates the association between IL-10-592 C/A (rs1800872) single-nucleotide polymorphism and HPV E6/E7 mRNA expression in a group of women from the Republic of North Macedonia. Using a commercial test, 272 women's cervical samples were analyzed for HPV E6/E7 mRNA and HPV DNA presence. The cases were stratified into three groups: double-positive (n = 108, positive for both tests), negative (n = 51, negative for HPV E6/E7 mRNA and HPV DNA positive), and the control group (n = 113, negative for both tests). The IL-10-592 C/A polymorphism was analyzed using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. The results showed the CC genotype and the C allele frequencies of IL-10-592C/A were significantly higher in double-positive (59.3% and 78.2%) compared to negative group (39.2% and 65.7%), (p = 0.018, confidence interval [CI] = 2.25; 1.14-4.45 and p = 0.016, CI = 1.88; 1.11-3.16, respectively). The CC genotype and C allele of rs1800872 polymorphism were shown to be associated with HPV E6/E7 mRNA but not with HPV DNA positivity, which implies a possible role of this polymorphism in the course of the infection only after HPV onset, and lack of association with the susceptibility to HPV.
